I'm really keen on Frizzel and Ponga to enter my team for Nikora and RTS but I'm conscious of being low on trades and now Mbye and A.Kelly look like huge problems.

Before Cleary
captain points - 70 (Fifita?)
Gun 1 (e.g. Moses) - 55
Gun 2 (e.g. CHN) - 50
TOTAL = 175 points 70 * 2 = 140 + 55 = 195

The difference between say a Gamble to a Moses is just $210k, so even if Cleary went to DCE, you'd potentially be able to upgrade another player by 10 or so points too.
It certainly get's closer, maybe 210 vs 190-230?

I personally don't think Cleary averages 95 in the remainder of the season (anyone feel like an avatar bet?).

It's almost a toss of a coin (in truth I haven't decided which way I'm leaning either)

EDIT: I may have read this wrong - but think maybe with the other After Cleary one's should be Cleary + the difference in extra captaincy points?

If you can swing it, a guy who fluctuates between 70's and 20's makes the perfect player to loop in from #18th man.

That being said, I'm probably holding Laurie as a backup for the forseeable.

Average vs "the big 5": Panthers, Storm, Eels, Rabbitohs, Turbo Eagles = 32 (inc 4 tries from 7 games) -> 2 games to go
Average vs "the rest" = 47 (inc 2 tries from 9 games) -> 6 games to go

Avo & RTS to Ponga & Frizzell should leave you with $142 ITB, then use Nikora to upgrade CTR next week, trades, who needs trades? It's Gun time!!!

He's a winger, so Best won't affect him.
Also, a big body, which means he's above Musgrove (who's a total spud) and was willing to take some of the tough carries out of their end.
I think the wing spot is his to lose now.
Yes, he's pricier than the other cashouts, but his DPP makes him very handy.

Mate it would literally take over 5 million bucks to make me do a nudie run. I love my job as a teacher way too much, and cannot see a scenario where I keep that job haha

Alternatively id do it for 3 more trades

Dont know. Might end up seeing out the season.

Hes still training with us as of yesterday (in some training pics i saw)

He lives with his younger brother whos in his last year of school.. think he wants to stick around til then

Cheers. Does Kobe lose his starting lock spot when TPJ comes back?

toast wrote:

My thinking was Laurie's spot is a backup WFB. So he sticks around all year as backup or gets cashed out to a cheaper WFB.

It might be as simple and obvious as what you've said and I'm overthinking it.

Brailey,
Haas,AFB,Angus
Dfi,CHN
SJ, Moses,
Ramien,Avo
Walsh, RTS, Teddy

Fog, Bird, iPap, Nikora
Verrils, A.Kelly, Mbye, Cleary

I'm really keen on Frizzel and Ponga to enter my team for Nikora and RTS but I'm conscious of being low on trades and now Mbye and A.Kelly look like huge problems.

This week I was planning to do Nikora -> Ponga as he seems to have lost his spot and also was never really a keeper. Also weary that I only have very limited cover for Mid/edge in only iPap.

Thanks crew

Not really, as I had him down as my backup WFB for the year also but thinking now of cashing him to Schoupp to turn Peach into Fifita instead of Matto.
